Fic Rec Challenge #2

brynnmclean:

Hi!  I saw other people asking for self-recs from other writers so they could spread some love, so I decided to join in on the fun.  Here are further details about submissions, including the deadline of 15 September!

I am reccing F.I.N.E. by @cats-and-metersticks (TinCanTelephone on AO3)!

Fic Summary: Urban dictionary definition of “Fine:” Fucked-up, insecure, neurotic, and emotional.  Cassian returns to Phoenix after eighteen months in Vancouver hoping everything’s the same as it was when he left. It’s not, of course. But he’s okay with that. He’s fine. Everything’s fine.

Fic Details: Rebelcaptain Modern AU, rated G, Cassian-centric

This is an interesting take on a modern AU where Cassian is coming back from being away and trying to adjust to all of his friends having some Life Changes, including Jyn having a new boyfriend.  Cassian struggles with how he fits back into life in Phoenix, not in the least because he’s had a quiet crush on Jyn for a long time.  There is a lot of angsty pining, struggling with jealousy, and a pet impulse buy!  (I’ll never be over the idea of Kaytoo as a cat! :D)  It’s a fic about wrestling with feelings– go check it out if that sounds like your cup of tea!
